I saw 2 RX-8's on the 210 yesterday (BB, LY) but I wasn't in my RX-8. :mad:

Which part of 210

Jedi54 05-24-2006 05:01 PM

both were between the 60 and Pasadena.

BB-I was heading West towards pasadena.
LY- East on 210, maybe near the 57? (young guy driving by himself in the LY)

WOW!!! someone actually saw me. Finally, and I started to think I was like this ghost 8 that people only saw at meets. What color is your car?

Black on 6th Street
 
Thursday 5.25.2006 at around 7:15pm heading east on 6th Street thru K-town. Had a stock spoiler & appearance package, but no rotary accents. Passenger-side suicide door had very slight scuff marks... Anyone here?

Yeh that was me, i was on my way to church. Aha, i saw 2 rx-8's on my way, first was on grand on the transition from chino hills to db where those hillls and cows are.

Then i saw you Silver 8 right when i turned. Yeh, got ms style front, mint blue sides, rear, blacked out lights, and the cf hood. Man i think i saw you already a long ass time ago, you rolled next to me while i was stock, and i said "nice ride" Aha. Hey come to this meet with me! Tonight in Chino Hills. You're Omar right?

lesper4 06-02-2006 01:41 PM

Lots of looking in LA
 
OK so I drove down to LA yesterevening and saw quaite a few 8's

Saw a TG on the free way 10 near the conventions center.

Saw another TG on La Brea I think, you were there with me and ahead of me was this crazy road rage driver in a white camry.

Saw a WB in the parking structure (second level) of the A+D Museum (grand opening last night)

Finally i saw a BB near Brea near Pinks hot dogs and Stir Crazy coffe shop.

So did any one see me?

Jedi54 06-02-2006 03:16 PM

I saw a WB this morning in the city of Tustin.
(approx 8:00 am) You were heading south on Newport Avenue towards the 5 fwy.

You had a HUGE GT wing on it!! Anyone here?

NgoRX8 06-02-2006 03:53 PM

HAHAHA, that's what i was thinking. couldn't find that thread though

MezMorada 06-02-2006 03:54 PM

Out of all the mods to do first... I thought he was joking...

XDEEDUBBX 06-02-2006 04:10 PM

ok, i know you guys won't like this but I saw a pink rx8 at the Long Beach Mazda dealership. Only drove by it, didn't get a good look at it. Anyone ever heard of this?

Jedi54 06-02-2006 04:13 PM

Mezmorada: That's exactly the guy that I was thinking about when I saw it! (just couldn't find the thread...)

It did look just like that and Alhambra isn't too far from Tustin. Might have to send him a PM.

what?! Was it some crazy ass show car?

XDEEDUBBX 06-02-2006 04:57 PM

i have no dam clue! I saw it while I was driving by, but when i drove back around to see it, it was gone. It was definetly not stock, the bumper looked like it had some sort of diffuser...hmmm curious about this one.

tiltmode43 06-03-2006 02:17 AM

Galpin Mazda had some crazy 8 with blinged out 20's, full ms kit, tint, etc. The kicker was that the car was painted orange/purple/red/etc depending on the angle the light was reflected. Hah, the salesman tried to sell me that and one of his pitches was, "You can say, 'my rx-8 is in the 2006 Galpin Calendar!'"

scremn8 06-03-2006 08:19 AM

a pink 8 is worth a pic. in long beach you say?? i'll try to swing by and get a pic.

scremn8 06-03-2006 08:21 AM

hey jedi good luck on the pm to that guy. he got flamed something terrible for showing pic's of that wing on his car. hope it did not chase him off.

Jedi54 06-03-2006 10:31 AM

Yeah, I sent him a PM to see if it was him. It's always a bummer when people get flamed so bad that they leave a forum, just because of a few bad apples.

Detrich 06-03-2006 12:58 PM

the galpin-ized rx-8 is actually a 2004 brilliant black w/ all the options. it used to show up in the inventory searches on mazdausa.com. when i was searching for mine, i called them and they said that car was no longer its original color... it's in their showroom and i think it makes u look at it, but only because it's so ugly u can't not do a double take on it. no wonder they can't sell it. HAHAHAHAHAHAH

To keep this post relevant - Grey 8 behind me yesterday in La Crescenta. I was busy looking in my rear view mirror I got pretty close to a minivan in front of me haha
